Tariq, in one of his last news conferences, in Rome, I believe, refused to take a question from an Israeli journalist. I think his punishment should include an apology for what he did that day.

Oh yeah, I'm sure the Israeli journalist's heart was broken. Maybe Tariq can even write "I won't ignore Zionist entity journalists" 50 times on the blackboard.

Only by telling you everywhere he isn't first so that you have to work it out by deduction. ;~)

I'm hearing a lot of things about Aziz in the news... Even though he was Vice-president and belonged to the elite some people are argueing that he didn't "know" much after all. I'm not sure what that "knowing" really means, but I don't think you're a very nice guy if you can get all the way up to vice-prez in Saddam's regime! . I say he's one of the baddies, and damnit, if the US are going to protect him just cos he's Christian, and he might give valuable information.. Well then I'm going to personally kick Bush's ass!!
